The horizontal cross section of a Coke can or bottle typically reveals a circular shape. This circular cross section represents the volume of the liquid inside, which is uniform in density and composition. If you were to look at the surface of the liquid, it would appear flat, reflecting the curvature of the container's sides.
It is a rectangle which is similar to the base.

When a sphere is cut with a vertical angled plane, the cross-section will be an ellipse. If the sphere is then cut by a horizontal plane, the cross-section will be a circle. Thus, the combination of these two cuts results in an elliptical cross-section from the angled cut and circular cross-sections from the horizontal cuts at various heights.
It is sometimes referred to as the shape's "plan".

If the cylinder is standing on its flat face, the horizontal cross section is a circle. Otherwise, it is a line or a rectangle.

No because it would be smaller.
They are all circles. The vertical and horizontal have the same radius as the ball while the angled cross section has a smaller radius.
